Meet Kayleigh 🤍

Kayleigh brings a thoughtful and grounded approach to working with children and families. Her background supporting adults through trauma and life transitions allows her to see not just what a child is experiencing, but how it connects to the entire family system.

Using a Synergetic Play Therapy™ approach, she helps children build regulation, express emotions, and feel safe in their bodies. When appropriate, she also integrates EMDR to support deeper healing in a way that is developmentally appropriate.

She believes parents are a vital part of the process and works closely with them to build confidence and understanding at home.

If your family is looking for support, we’re here 🤍

Ever wonder what a play therapy space actually looks like?

The environment matters. Our office is designed to feel safe, calm, and welcoming; a place where children can explore big feelings through play and where parents can exhale a little too.

Before the work begins, safety begins.

If you’ve been curious about what therapy might feel like for your child, here’s a peek inside. 💛

Becoming a Certified Synergetic Play Therapist™ goes far beyond basic licensure.

In addition to being licensed mental health professionals, Certified SPT therapists complete 2–2.5 years of focused study in this specific model, including 117 hours of specialized training and 20 additional hours of consultation dedicated solely to Synergetic Play Therapy™.

This neuroscience-informed approach integrates nervous system regulation, attachment theory, mindfulness, and the therapeutic power of play to support deep emotional healing.

It’s an investment in doing this work with skill, intention, and integrity. 💛

Ever catch yourself thinking, “Why are they acting like this?”

From a Synergetic Play Therapy™ perspective, misbehavior isn’t about being bad, it’s about a nervous system that’s overwhelmed.

When kids melt down, argue, shut down, or push back, it often means their “downstairs brain” is in charge. In those moments, logic won’t land. Consequences won’t stick. What helps first is regulation.

Instead of asking, “How do I stop this behavior?”
Try asking, “What is my child trying to communicate right now?”

When we look beneath the behavior, everything shifts.

💛 Connection first. Regulation always.
